Our Code of Ethics is based on the ethical values of responsibility, accountability, fairness and transparency that underpin good corporate governance. We fully embrace the inclusive stakeholder approach and we expect that the ethical standards, set out in our Code of Ethics, to be integrated into our business strategies and operations.
